I really like that.  I know that many people have rocks piled at the edge of their pond for a natural look (and to disguise the liner), but I like a level surface, because I like to walk right up to the edge and peer in - even sit and dangle my feet.

It is going to be gorgeous when planted.

I have a mix of rounded and flat stepping stone type rocks around my ponds so I can always step right up to the edge.
